In this video, I delve deep into the world of Spring annotations, breaking down the top 10 must-knows for developers. Starting with @Component, @Service, @Repository to @Controller and more, I explain their importance and usage inside a Spring application. The video aims to equip developers with the know-how of annotations like @Autowired, @Value, @Configuration, @Bean, and @Transactional that enhance the development process. Also ranked are the @RestController, Request Mapping Family, and most importantly the @SpringBootApplication. Join me as we explore these critical elements of Spring and unravel how they impact your code, development process, and overall application performance making your coding cleaner, easier to read, and maintain.

A note on @Autowired since this is coming up a lot. Yes, constructor injection (and NOT using annotation-based wiring) is the recommended approach if it works for you. But @Autowired is still an important annotation to learn about because of two things - First, it gives you more control with things like qualifiers in scenarios where construction injection doesn't work. Second, there is a good chance you WILL see it in the code and you should know what it does.

Very well presenting for these annotations. One quick question. If I use @Autowired on the field of a class while it has construtor with this field to be injected the value, does spring inject value twice to the field?

I have around 10 years of experience in The IT Industry - mostly as a Software Web Developer. Many years ago - I guess around 2010 or 2011 approx. - I decided to learn Spring Framework. And yours was the first channel I subscribed to and watched ALL of your videos on Spring framework. You introduced me to the world of Spring Framework, And I will always be thankful to you for that! I still follow your channel - mainly to revise my concepts. Thank you for the awesome work you have been doing since more than a decade! 🙌🙏💫
Knew all these, but hearing you explain it solidifies it and fills in gaps in my knowledge. Thanks so much!
Quality content, as usual. Here are a few annotations in my opinion that could be frequently used: @Qualifier - Specifies the bean to be injected when multiple beans of the same type are present @Primary - Indicates that a bean should be given precedence when multiple beans of the same type are present @EnableCaching - Enables Spring's annotation-driven caching capability (Application.java) @Cacheable - Indicates that a method's result should be cached @EnableAsync - Enables Spring's asynchronous method execution capability (Application.java) @Async - Indicates that a method should be executed asynchronously @Scheduled - Specifies methods to be executed on a regular schedule for cron jobs
Appreciate this tutorial. Is very helpful. Hope to see more Spring boot related video in the future !
Thank you for this video. I need to learn Spring for my job and this was a great starting point.
Wow i am so happy to see Koushik being back with some knowledge sharing again
Greatly explained koushik . Even though i used all these annotations before i got to know more about them . Thanks for the videos .
Another conscise and informational content. Short, crisp and To the point... Keep up the good work. 😃
Love the quality improvements of the videos!
Thank you so much sir, keep posting and sharing your valuable knowledge with us.
The best teacher ever. Thank you a ton
explanations on important spring annotations are very clear and useful.
Amazing video and a great refresher for me. Thank you infinitely ☺️
Thanks, the list was well synthesized and very well explained. The autowired one is still relevant despite the comments bellow, if you are only a spring entry level user sure it has no use, but if you want to create some things out of the box in runtime is still very appreciated.
Thank you so much for this video, loved it. It's very useful and concise explanation. Great job!!!
I leart the spring from you long back in 2011. You have been the only teacher for me for a long time. I love you.

Can you do a similar video for Spring Batch please? There’s a lot of confusion about what the annotations especially with the differences between Springbatch 5 and previous versions.
Great Video.. I have one question.. we can use @Bean annotation in @configuration and @component class... basically is there any difference in use them in configuration and component. Could you please explain with example it would be really useful
@lucasteixeira1631

it is more like stereotyping the class, same as using @Service and @Repository instead of only @Component, in order to tell us which is which, you know? So you could use @Component in a config file, but if you use @Configuration, you're also telling the ones who read the code, that is it a config file.
I never use @Autowired. If you use the consructor to wire up variables, those variables are automatically wired.

@JamesStansell

@Profile marks a bean conditional on the value of the spring.profiles.active property. Use it sparingly because it can make it difficult to reason about the behaviour of your application in different scenarios. In particular do not scatter it throughout your entire codebase.
excellent

What about using only configuration classes to create beans vs using annotations to register the beans. What are the pros and cons?
Is there anything related to the continuation of the started JavaBrains bootcamp?

Could you please check if Quarkas is gaining attention and consider starting a series on the same please 😀👍

Seems to me that having the application tell spring about itself breaks encapsulation.

Not so much with an annotation. Annotations are like "tags" or markers. It's not ideal but it's still way better than a compile time dependency.
@JPBelanger

@@Java.Brains you application still has a dependency to spring. Wiring should happen in @Configuration classes, that encapsulate the wiring. Spring does not promote this, but it's the right way to do it.

every imp annotations is cover
Hotshot you are not as good as you think in Spring. There is no difference in @Service and @Component so far. Though it can be useful for pointcuts and tools. There are addtional properties for @Controller and @Repository. When Spring sees these 2 annotations then it do extra processing which is not done for @Service.
dont add the background music not useful!
